Getting Started with Microsoft Agent Framework: Build Practical AI Agents

Описание: AI agents are moving fast, but building one that delivers real value requires more than just prompts.

In this session, you’ll get a hands‑on introduction to the Microsoft Agent Framework, focusing on how to design and build practical AI agents that can reason, take actions, and integrate with real systems. You’ll explore how agentic AI fits into modern application architectures and how developers can move from experimentation to production‑ready agents.

You Will Learn:
Core concepts behind agentic AI and intelligent agents
How the Microsoft Agent Framework is structured and applied
How to build agents that interact with tools, APIs, and workflows
Best practices for creating practical, extensible AI agents

Technologies Used:
GitHub Copilot
GitHub Actions
Agentic AI patterns
GitHub‑based CI/CD pipelines

Who Should Attend:
Developers getting started with agentic AI
Engineers building AI‑powered applications or services
Architects exploring production‑ready agent frameworks
Anyone who wants to move beyond AI demos to real implementations
